All this comes as attempts continue to cool tensions along the Baabda–عين التينة line. Between President Joseph Aoun, who has raised the ceiling of sovereign rhetoric to its highest level, and the positions of Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri, who rejects direct negotiations and is aligned with Hezbollah, backed by illusory support from the Iranian Foreign Ministry, a striking political chill is emerging. This reflects a clear fracture in the approach to the negotiation file after the “duo,” with its two wings Hezbollah and the Amal Movement, turned into a real obstacle hindering progress, whether in the negotiations or in consolidating the ceasefire.
In this context, Nidaa Al-Watan has learned that no breakthrough was recorded yesterday on the Baabda–عين التينة line. Speaker Berri is still standing firm, but there are expectations that the matter will be addressed soon. The attendance of the two Amal Movement ministers at the Cabinet session in Baabda was also marked by positivity, and the gloomy external atmosphere was not reflected in the session, which witnessed interaction between the two ministers and the President of the Republic.
